This mesh method generates a high percentage of hexahedral cells in a Cartesian layout
in the far field, to deliver accurate fluid flow results.
Local to the surface, mixed element types are used that allow the mesh to conform to
sharp features.
The surface cells can be inflated to generate hexahedral and prismatic layers to capture
near-wall physics effects.
Rapid mesh generation of hexahedral cells with minimal user setup make this mesh
method ideal for complex geometry for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation.
Automated sweep meshing
Sweepable bodies are automatically detected and meshed with hex mesh when
possible..
Edge increment assignment and side matching/mapping are done automatically.
Sweep paths are found automatically for all regions/bodies in a multibody part.
Defined inflation is swept through connected swept bodies.
Sizing controls and mapped controls can be added, and source faces selected to modify
and take control of the automated sweeping.
Adding/modifying geometry slices/decomposition to the model greatly aids in the
automation to obtain a pure hex mesh.
This mesh method quickly generates a hex mesh for thin solid parts that have multiple
faces as source and target.
This method can be used in conjunction with other mesh methods.
Sizing controls and mapped controls can be added, and source faces selected to modify
and take control of the automated sweeping.
This advanced sweeping approach uses automated topology decomposition behind the
scenes to attempt to automatically create a pure hex or mostly hex mesh on complicated
geometries.
Decomposed topology is meshed with a mapped mesh or a swept mesh if possible. The
option to allow for free mesh in sub-topologies that can’t be mapped or swept is available.
This method supports multiple source/target selection.
Defined inflation is swept through connected swept bodies.
Sizing controls and mapped controls can be added, and source faces selected to modify
and take control of the automated sweeping.
